In the Dark
 It’s
always good to be in the black in the finance world, and also in
fashion.
I have been a convert to black for many years, because it looks so
elegant. I noticed that influential fashion editors like to wear black
when covering the shows in the world’s fashion capitals. It’s their
uniform in a way, but I’ve always thought that why are they garbed in
funereal dress. But that is the way it is.
Even with the arrival of silver and gray, classic black has
not been pushed aside. Black is a classic color that never goes out of
style.
It also provides ample convenience. For one, it goes well
with all colors, from gold to silver, and even red. It also is not
time specific; you can wear it to work and then head out on the town
in it.
It’s only downfall is that it provides a dark background to
highlight other less desirable parts of your appearance (the dreaded
dandruff) and black can be hot to wear. But it’s one of those things
where you cannot have one without the other, kind of like the beatific
angel on the outside and the devilish Judas on the inside paradox.
“Stop talking about yourself,” a friend once told me.
